Your system supports up to three drives (two diskette drives and one hard
drive or two hard drives and one diskette drive). Use only one-inch high,
3-1/2 inch devices in the two upper drive bays. The lower drive bay is
universal and can hold any half-height 5-1/4 inch or 3-1/2 inch device.

Note: The instructions in this section are for general information only.
Refer to the drive installation guide that accompanies your diskette or tape
drive for additional instructions and information. After installing a new
drive, run the Setup utility to update the system configuration.

Notes to Tape Drive or Disk Cartridge Owners:

* Check with the trained technicians at a Radio Shack Service Center before
  you install a tape or disk cartridge system. Some tape and disk cartridge
  systems require additional hardware for proper installation.
* Only the lower drive bay supports a tape or disk drive cartridge system.
